Introducing Technology in Four Businesses

Abstract

A striking feature of the U.S. economy is its constant change. One hundred years ago the country's biggest industry was agriculture; a few decades later, manufacturing engaged the largest number of people. However, by 1984, about 70 per cent of all workers were involved not in producing goods, but in delivering services. Technology advances are the catalyst behind these and other trends affecting todays businesses.
